Back to School Open House
Burlington LABBB parents were invited to an Open House hosted by the LABBB staff and students on Friday, September 26th. In addition to sampling treats provided by the classrooms, the occasion provided an opportunity for parents to connect and to hear what is happening in our program this year. We were very excited to show off our program!
Stretch it to the limit
Life in our classroom can be difficult and stressful at times when we have a lot of work to do. Luckily, we have found a solution to this problem. YOGA!! This can be very relaxing for all who practice it. We have learned some ways to breathe that help us to get calm. In addition to breathing, we do stretches, poses and play games with partners and groups. We have posted some pictures that show us doing our poses. Namaste!
Yoga
Dioramas
The class enjoyed reading an adapted version of Macbeth in comic book format. Their culminating activity was creating a Diorama depicting a scene of their choice. The students used figures, colored paper, computer images and their own drawings in order to creat their projects. As usual, we were impressed!
Historical Figure PowerPoint
During Technology class in conjunction with U. S. History, the students created PowerPoint presentations on a historical figure from the American Revolution. The students caught on to using PowerPoint quite quickly. Click on the title of the presentation to view their work.
Check Out our Glogs on Cell Parts
Our students did a wonderful job using “Glogster” (an online poster making program) to create an employee handbook for a fictional gaming store “Cellebrate”. They were asked to create job descriptions that coincide with the duties of the organelle or cell part they were assigned. Click on the following cell parts to see the students’ work.

Welcome to LABBB Burlington
We are having a great school year here in Burlington. The staff, the space and the resources here are great. The students and staff have become acclimated to the new space and routines.
We have taken becoming part of the Burlington community one step further by creating our own replica of the Burlington High’s senior rock wall (seniors have a tradition of spray painting their names on the rocks located in the back of the school). All of our students are creative, so we decided to have them define themselves through art. We used paper, paint, makers and spray paint to make our creation. Check it out:
